COMMUNIOATI0NS.
The Old state House.

To the Editor OF the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
That building is good and classical
And tits worthy of question and note
If we ask what the sense is?
They are full of pretenses,
And we think Of an old anecdote.
"Behold the wife of Jerebrom cometh to
say something. And when she eometh she
will feign herself to be another. And it was
SO that her footsteps were manifest to the
ear without ere she reached the threshold.
And voice from within called out, Come in
thou wife of Jerebrom, why feignest thou
thyself to be another?" Allow me please the
privilege of further word to clown Born"
in your Tuesday morning paper. He has
caught up the silly phrase to make people
believe him to be something that he is not.
He certainly may well enough be thankful
that he were born at all. Who knows wheth
er he were or nota Or if he were not, whether
he only grew up among weeds. Even if he
were SO it had been mean thing in him thus
to assume another name, humble though it
may be. His mocking pretences diacredit
all he says.
But to the point of pulling down that COST
1y old building and throwing it away when
SO very nearly the whole of it and of the fine
site it stands on were given by the State to
our city. 1 am not reproaching this pretend
er fer any real opinions. That building is a
firm, substantisl-an excellent building to-
day, and we'll and properly repaired it would
produce an annual income to the city and
would relieve in some good degree the bur-
dens of the people, so far as they possess tax
able property in the city. There are those
who are exempt from such taxation. But
should they not sympathize with those who
are not exempt Somehow it may come to
pass that the fair and honorable savings of
our neighbor may help even you and me,
reader But do not let us lie about the old
State House. It is not yet wreck. And if
every citizen as q man had good founda-
ton for his own character as said building
has for itself, there could not be had popu-
lar vote to destroy 1t. CITIZEN.

| well worth attention. Says he: The books
which have helped me most, and which be-
| lieve would be most valuable TO any reader,
| are those which are very clear and Ineligible
| in their STYLE bat which, nevertheless, from
their largeness and breadth of view and from
| their range of thought lying somewhat above
the commonplace, demand close attention
and patient study in the reader. The book
is none the worse, but rather the better, If it
has come down to US, with high reputation,
for Campbells period of sixty years, or even
for many times sixty. Read such a book
through once in order to get general view
Of the aim and method of its author. Read
it second time more carefully in order de-
liberately to weigh the value of its parts.
Read the more valuable parts third time
with meditation and reflection, that you may
digest and assimilate what nutriment Is there.
The Chicago Times sets forth the immi-
grafton problem in way that will meet the
approval of many. 1t says: The growing
American idea of to-day is prescription and
exclusion of foreigners on account of perni-
cious foreignism, which includes snarohism,
socialism, dynamitism, pauperisn and every
otherism and mode Of mental and moral dis
ease. The time is past when the population
of any part of this country by foreign emf
grants was beneficial in an economic or any
other point of view; nevertheless, the Ameri-
can idea would continue to admit the physi-
cally and morally heathful emigrant from
Europe who comes of his own volition and at
his own cost. But the requirement that the
pernicious foreigner shall be excluded is i'm
perative-so imperative that it may be said
that his exclusion will be in the near future
the condition of the admission Of any foreign
emigration whatever. Whether pernicious
foreigners or all foreigners shall be proscrib-
ed-this is the alternative which offers only
choice between the American idea and the
know-nothing idea.

REFoRm IN FTNERALs.

The matter discussed at the meeting of
| prominent Protestant Episcopal clergymen
| held in New York city Monday is an i'm
| portant one. There has been in England for
some time an association called the ''Church
| of England Funeral and Mourning Reform
| association" which has worked wholesome
| influence throughout Great Britain. This
association owns its own cemetery and takes
full charge of funeral, supplying grave,
coffin, hearse, carriages and all other necessa-
| ries at merely nominal cost. at meeting
of the Churchman'S association in New York
a year ago a committee was appointed to
| consider this matter and draw up plan of
| association. The secretary of this committee
| made report at the meeting Monday, in
| which he said the object of the association
| was to reform certain abuses in funerals
| as they are carried on to-day and greatly re-
duce their expenses. The association, he
said, would purchase tract of three hun
| dred or five hundred acres of land within an
hours ride of New York as cemetery and
bury all its dead there under conditions
which it could not obtain in any of the pres
ent cemeteries. And he continued: We
should encourage people to stop the practice
of building costly mausoleums and nonu-
nents in cemeteries. A simple cross ought
to mark the resting place of Christian. The
use of tombs in every form should be done
away with; the body should be put in
coffin of some light, perishable material, like
wicker work or paper mache, so that it may
the sooner be dissolved into dust as God
nichf ipko oh
and affection for a loved one are not wisely
exhibited in squandering the fruit of his toll
in funeral pomp or burying it with his body
| in the grave. Better it were spent as gift
for charity's sake or for the great missionary
| work of the church.
No definite action was taken by the meet
| ing, but there is every indication that the
movement is real one. Among those in
| its favor is Bishop Potter, who said: am
| in sympathy with this movement and it will
/ receive my hearty and active cooperation. I
| trust the organization will be SO formed as to
| include representatives of all religious de-
| nominations, to the end that its work may
| be made as effective and far-reachfng as pos
i sible. It will be necessary to bear in mind
that at every step the organization will be
| fought by powerful combinations of trades
| men whose incomes this movement will tend
to diminish, and whose hostility, therefore,
may be confidently predicted. It is my be-
lief that the methods of inter ment at present
in vogue are vicious and that the highest
type of Christian burial will only be attained
when the administration of cemeteries is
placed entirely in the hands of the church.
Tt will be interesting to see the movement
| grow. There is no doubt that such reform
as it seeks to bring about is greatly needed.

THE WHITE HOUSE DINING ROOM.
Historic silver Plate that Belongs to
the United states.


From Harperss Bazar.l
The private dining room, or that in which
the family residing in that house take their
meals on all save State occasions, and in
which, when they desire to have a few
friends dine with them informally, the
meal is served, is one of the handsonest
rooms in the building. 1t and the red
parlor are the only ones on the first floor
which suggest by their furniture and or
naments the apartments for similar pur-
poses in the homes of people of wealth
and taste. The East room, the Blue and
Green parlers and the State dining room
all have a stiff ceremonious air, as if
made for show, and call to mind the par
lors of finely furnished hotels, which are
not expected to be used as living rooms
by anyone But in modern hotels of the
best elass one does not see woodwork
about doors and windows painted in col
ors, as was done six years ago in the
Blue parlor, and remaineth to this day a
bright glaring blue, which, there being
much of it beneath and around the win
dows, spoils the tints of everything else in the
